It’s Father’s Day weekend and I wanted to take time to honor two great Dad’s (my Dad and my husband Ron). Many men can father a child, but it takes something extra special to be a “Dad”. A Dad invests time into you with sweat, discipline, hard work, love and sometimes tears. If you have a Dad like that you have a treasure.
We lost my Dad four years ago and not a day passes by that I don’t thank God for giving me such a wonderful Dad. He took the time to invest in me and my brother and the activities we participated in. He was an awesome listener and a treasure of wise advice. I could just talk to him about anything and he would really listen. He would come and pick me up, bringing me a cup of “half cut” tea just the way I like it and we’d meet Mom at the Food Pantry to serve the community. He was one of the most generous people. I sure do miss him but know I will see him again.
I also want to honor my husband Ron for the great Dad he is to our son. Ron always makes himself available to our son if he needs him. It’s been amazing to watch how he will put things aside to do things with our son. The younger years of sports, fishing, trips, four wheeling, or whatever hobby Joshua was involved in, Ron made the time. This past year since Joshua stopped driving due to his vision, Ron has been there to take him anywhere he needs to go. Always saying, “If you need me to come pick you up, just call.” When Joshua calls an Uber, Ron is like, “Why didn’t you call me?” It;s amazing to see how much he loves our son. He is a treasure and I’m thankful.
So many great memories over the years with both of these great Dads. So thankful for the cherished times and lessons learned from my Dad. So thankful for all the great times Ron has poured into our son and looking forward to many more. So in honor of Father’s Day Thank You!!! With all my love and appreciation!
